herfstaster (2005) Digital Arts by Harmen Wiersma

Harmen Wiersma, born in 1959 in Groningen, was brought up in Veendam, and living now in Swifterbant. Although he hasn't had any artistic education at an art-institute, he has spend his entire life drawing and (technical) designing, w/o a computer. Not long ago he has developed his own style and he is very content with it's recent results in other galleries.

With his Apple Macintosh computer, he has been able to recreate the look of his designs to resemble other forms of 'Painting' styles, such as water colors and most his subjects sway towards plant and animal life. But you'll encounter other styles in his collection too.

All of his extra-ordinary designs are in the beginning fractals then edited and changed with Photoshop, Fireworks, Gimp or Painter. Other applications are not forgotten, like Flash and Dreamweaver, in the creation and presentation of animations and pages on the world wide web. All his artwork can be displayed in any language or dialect you want and be printed in different formats.

Under the aliases of undisclosed designer and darkchrystal, he has several galleries, where you may view his work.

At his official website, he has a brief collection of several designs, and don't be afraid to visit it regularly, for the upgrades @ are once a month.
